2.4.3

Bug fix for saved search queries.

2.4.0

Python 2 went EOL in October 2021. The entire codebase was delinted and brought into conformity with PEP 8 guidelines (with mixed results--debugging continues) and updated to run in Python 3. The mysql versions in Docker were bumped several times due to new Ubuntu releases. PAST updates after December 2021 were all made in the new Python 3 branch, including the addition of extra fields and the debugging of the new front-end interface and back-end API. Database connections have been cleverly made dependent on . Note that the models have been updated several times post-merge. The mapping interface was brought back online. Language on the site was updated according to the recommendations of the humanization subcommittee.

2.3.0

This release marks the beginning of Rice's tenure as host of the SlaveVoyages project. The codebase had previously been containerized for development purposes, but this was adapted to a production environment setting. Docker volumes (https://docs.docker.com/storage/volumes/) and network bridges (https://docs.docker.com/network/) were implemented, and container logging was enabled; and localsettings were adapted accordingly for local deployment and production. Redis cache, Nginx, Mailhog, and Php Adminer were implemented in Docker Compse in order to simulate production deployments. The Django Docker script itself was improved upon to enable multi-stage builds, thereby supporting faster rebuilds. The news feed and multilanguage flatpages support were debugged, the documentation was updated to explain the deployment process more clearly, and mismatches between Solr and the models were reconciled to resolve some bugs in the editorial interface. PAST, the People of the African Slave Trade, was added preliminarily to the codebase, building out models for enslaved people and enslavers, to be related through the Voyages model when they both connected to these, and through a transactions table when the enslaved and enslaver were connected through a non-voyage event, for instance, a sale.
